GH did good on Monday. Probably because of the Friday cliffhanger of Lisa throwing herself in front of Patricks car. Wonder if GH will go up again for the Brenda/Sonny reunion this week. All ABC soaps are up from last week and last year. Maybe not so many people went away this year.

[Toups]

But year-to-year is somewhat misleading when you're only looking at one week. Last year, GH was very low, and GH had a good week this year, so there's going to be a gain. Next week, GH could be down year-to-year - it depends how they did last year and how they did this year. The only way to look at the year-to-year ratings is, well, yearly.

I hope ATWT spikes next week....IT deserves a strong final weeek.

[Errol]

You can change it if you want Toups.

[Peyton]

I agree. OLTL gaining 100,000 viewers from the previous week and holding steady in the important demos is nothing to sneeze at during this dire time for the soap genre.

Nevermind

How can it be said that OLTL had a good week? It's in last place tied with a cancelled soap. To me, OLTL continues on a

dismal track. No one can be happy with this rating. In fact, how can it be justified to keep these low rated soaps on the air.

These numbers were when Port Charles was cancelled. In fact, all soap ratings are pretty dismal. Y and R can't even get up

over a 4.0 anymore. 1.7 is a horrible rating.

No one is arguing that. The show gained viewers from the previous week. That's what OLTL fans and people who watch the ratings are concerned about right now.

There is justification for poeple who continue to watch. If you're not watching, fine. Me and others who enjoy these programs will continue to watch as long as they are on.

[Soapsuds]

It has two more weeks of ratings left. I thought last week was pretty good. I expected higher numbers. John returned and was on all week. All of CBS was down on Friday. I guess no one wanted to see Reid die and Noah stay [!@#$%^&*] alive.

GH numbers are still shitty! Only a 1.9 rating...but they do have 2.6 mil viewers. Still not great numbers for Vanessa's return.

What was so good about AMC that they went up??

OLTL still is tied with ATWT in HH.

Hopefully ATWT can hit #4 in Total Viewers and #3 in HHs the last week. It's not that far away from either one now.

+1

Isn't doing good in the demos what counts? OLTL is doing better than AMC in the demos and has been for a long while now........

AMC isn't too much ahead of the now cancelled ATWT in the demos and yet OLTL and GH are kicking AMC's arse in the demos

[AllMyDaysatGH]

Most likely people wanting to find out who would die on Friday's show. The whole week was building up to that.

[OLTL_fan]

Calebs overpromoted party. Must have seen that someone dies promo 10 times.

Most people continue to ignore that.

[marceline]

Here we go again. Is there ever going to be a week that this thread doesn't turn into AMC/OLTL fans fighting like drag queens at a wig sale?

[Toups]

Another big week for DAYS and another fall in the ratings. DAYS just can't get a break.

[NYC123]

Thank You. And this time we didn't even start it.

We didn't say ANYTHING about OLTL.

Maybe Zendall Fan did but the majority of the AMC havn't said ANYTHING.
